[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our neighbors, our friends, relatives, friends from work (mine), DH's entire team from work. It was around 150 people at our home. It was a big do. Dinner was catered, a cook was on site who made the appetizers and bread, there were 3 servers and 1 bartender with open bar. We had a magician for the kids. First birthday is huge in our culture. It was great![/quote] What is your culture? My neighbors did this and they are Indian. Catered with rented tent and tables, like a wedding. I had never seen a first birthday that was such a big event.[/quote] We are North Indians. We also did several ceremonies through out the first year to mark the 40th day, the naming ceremony, the first solid meal etc. I guess, in olden days infant mortality was high and if a child was healthy at the end of the first year, it was worth celebrating.
